Talk:Volcán de Colima

For an FA...

In order to move up to FA status, this article needs some touching up.

First, References! It surprised me that this article was a GA w/ only one reference! I mean come on.

Next, expansion. This article needs some facts.

Finally, Images. It would be nice to have some more images around.

Accurate Death Tolls From Eruptions

Should be included, as well as damages from qualified sources. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.244.170.5 (talk) 03:26, 31 January 2011 (UTC)

Ambiguos article

There are 2 mountains 4 kilometers apart: 1) Nevado de Colima 2) Volcan de fuego

The article focus on Volcan de Fuego which is 3,820 mts, but the higher one is Nevado de Colima wich heights at 4,260 mts. Position is for Volcan de Fuego, and very comic the first ascent of 1995 since it has been climbed for a hunderd years by now. My proposal is the article should be rewrite in order to separete both mountains, since the smaller Volcan de Fuego, has a promminence of 600 meters. Here are the INEGI numbers (Mexico's official geographic institute) Anyone has ideas? Pepeleyva (talk) 18:50, 21 January 2012 (UTC)

It's been on my todo list. In this particular case it may be best to have two seperate articles. Volcan de Fuego is probably the overall more notable because of its active volcanism; but topographically, Nevado de Colima is more notable. So we would have two articles named Volcan de Fuego and Nevado de Colima. I am not 100% sure if this is the best idea though. There are redirects to deal with and we would have to move this page. I guess the obstacles would be what one typically deals with in a split, which I have never done. I figured I would post here before doing anything and try get some others' opinions/help. --RacerX¹¹ Talk to me^{Stalk me} 04:02, 23 October 2012 (UTC)

Forgot to mention another idea for an interim solution would be to leave just this single article, and add to it a second infobox for Nevado de Colima. Then we would at least have the basic data for both peaks properly diplayed. --RacerX¹¹ Talk to me^{Stalk me} 04:13, 23 October 2012 (UTC)

Correction is required

To include the 2013 eruptions. This series of eruptions started in 2013, not 2014. Please excuse me for not volonteering for the job, little may it be. LouisBB (talk) 10:42, 25 February 2015 (UTC) Template:Reflist-talk

Stratovolcano

Want to provide more background on Stratovolcano's and the Volcan de Fuego:

Having been active for nearly 5 million years, and with frequent eruptions dating back to the 16th century (NMNH), the Volcán de Colima is considered a stratovolcano, composed of alternate layers of lava and ash. “Volcán de Fuego is an active stratovolcano, the most explosive and dangerous in all of Mexico” (Colima).
